I go for the layered approach.

Majority of my stuff is army surplus from Ebay, except for the ski trousers from Matalan Razz

Long john top, Norgie top, wool (or fleece) jumper, fleece jacket and a goretex coat for the top half.

Lower down I wear long john leggings, the ski trousers, two pairs of thermal socks and Regatta waterproof hiking boots.

If it's REALLY cold I also wear a 2 piece quilted undersuit. This lot may sound bulky but it isn't too bad really. I can regulate my temps by removing or adding a layer as and when required and stay warm, comfortable and dry all day long Very Happy

A word of warning: If you go for a one piece suit, make sure it has a 2 way full length zip in order to make toilet breaks easier.

Two piece suits are obviously easier if you go for a No.2 Rolling Eyes
